The Welsh Ambulance Service said it was called out to the accident at 7.23am.

A spokeswoman said: “Crew in an emergency ambulance attended the scene and took a man with minor injuries to the Wrexham Maelor Hospital.”

A shopper told the Daily Post said: "I got to the store and saw two smashed up cars surrounded by police tape. I thought it was the part of a police anti-drink driving initiative but I spoke to someone in the car park and they one of the cars hit a trolley bay and then hit a parked car.

"Both of the cars were pretty bashed up and they were taken away by a recovery vehicle."
